Question

I recently found the google maps-styling(https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/javascript/styling)

I’ve been trying to figure out how to hide the forests. (like the green stuff in norway)

And change the color of all land-areas.

using       featureType: "landscape",
        stylers: [
          { visibility: "off" }
        ]

Answer 1

Use this wizard ( http://gmaps-samples-v3.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/styledmaps/wizard/index.html ) to customize the styling of your map. Then grab the JSON you created and assign it to your styling variable var styles. Then you can set the style variable in the map options.

The JSON that targets your question should be:

[
  {
    featureType: "landscape.natural",
    stylers: [
      { visibility: "off" }
    ]
  },{
    featureType: "poi.park",
    stylers: [
      { visibility: "off" }
    ]
  }
]

You can use the wizard to change the colors of the land types as well (changing the Hue field).
